like flesh off the scales
slips a sluggish chunk

risking atrophy, ogrish assumptions
tend and see to rend leniency limb
from limbic whim

a spectral understory
hum heavy in the wind whipping detritus
form unforming informal storm mourning
something vertiginous,  
it was drowned in bent bubbles as it rose

some oxygenated moron
moreover a sore son of Inertia
she was a daft bitch
and he
a longlunged sycophant


seeking in sciomancy


but a

well-wrapped wraith makes it hard to cast shadow
out into the sea

unseen lines trawling that incipient imitation
for sparrow-tailed bream


below a slow undulation
peristaltic successions clunkily shudderslunk
like flesh off the scales

a slippery sluggish chunk
assumes echarotic past-tense parlance

plankton warble wide as whales

cast down a fathom
sloughingly deep
for ichthyomantic answerings
